I voted Tenn... my rationale being as dumb as he was at Ole Miss (I blame the 20 seconds that ran off the clock or whatever before the timeout called before the "hail mary" as the bigger error cause it caused the later confusion), he didnt learn his lesson, which makes the Tenn. game more severe...

Vote "Tennessee"!

we are the joke of CF. Why is this so hard to realize for some people. Of course it looks bad for recruiting, bc we look horrible. Did you expect anything else with this asshat as the head coach? I hope they keep making us look like dumbasses everytime we do stupid shite like yesterday. Expose us some more and maybe we can get rid of him

I voted for this year, because after last year we were supposed to never be in a position to screw up this badly again. "We addressed and fixed the mistakes." I am sick of hearing this line of BS, we have fixed nothing and yesterday proved it. This year HAS to be worse because it really is a comedy of errors and history continually repeating itself over and over again. I do not understand how this guy continually lucks out.

I mean we can chronicle his mismanagement of games from the beginning and yet it has only bit him one time? Really?!? We have the luckiest and dumbest coach in all of football, it is unreal.

This last one has to be the winner. The Ole Miss throw was supposed to be the last play of the game. It should have been thrown all the way to the end zone and not the 5. I could somehow rationalize that one.

This one, there is not rationale for. 92,000 plus millions at home knew that we had to be ready to run another play if the first run was not successful. There were around 28 seconds left when the first play ended and we could not get off a reasonable play? The announcers were commenting how UT was snapping the ball with 12-15 seconds left on the 40 second play clock and that is when the game wasn't on the line.

Ole miss.

As bad as the last 22 secs were. If not for the personnel shuffle at the very end, the penalty would have never happened.

And they are stupid in the question. The problem against Ole Miss was not the spike call, we didn't have time to get the snap off anyway. It was not calling the timeout for 15 seconds. Phrasing the question that way shows the maker of the poll is also a fricking idiot.

Anyone who complains about the spike call reveals themselves to be just as stupid as they claim Les is, or at the very least that you have no idea what you're talking about. The mistake was delaying the timeout.

Hope they did get the idea from this board, the more he makes dumBass calls the more they should expose him for the coach he really is

Mike Huguenin:

Somebody upstairs must owe Les Miles. If there's a remake of "Pride of the Yankees," Miles would be the perfect guy to give the "I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth" speech. I didn't believe anything could top the atrocious clock management by Tigers coaches at the end of last season's LSU-Ole Miss game.

Then came Saturday against Tennessee. Does anybody on LSU's offensive staff have any semblance of a clue? This time, though, Miles was bailed out.

I still don't know how you can vote For Tennessee as a bigger "screw up" than Ole Miss since we won the game. It all worked out in the end and even though it was embarrassing watching LSU in those final seconds they atleast scored. You never know what might've happened before that untimed down and we somehow lose. I'll take a Win with a obvious screw up than a loss by doing it right. And for those people saying they kinda wished they lost to get Miles out of there than your not a true fan anyways... I'm tired of Miles and Crowton too but goodness atleast we WON.

"We are a joke. I hate this shite."

To everyone who boos, claiming that "I'm not booing the players, I'm booing the coaching staff", take heed of this comment along with those who agree with it.

ESPN is not booing the LSU fan base. It's only booing the coaching staff.

If our fan base gets its personal feelings hurt by comments made by the media against the coaches, shouldn't we realize that our players are likewise hurt when a growing number of our disguished fans boo toward the field during the game?
